- However, a lot of us would rather that this *mot* be done. We'd also like
- the option of specifying a different BGI (to support non-standard video).
-
- Why should I have to put up with 640x200x2 (or 320x200x4) when my hardware
- can do 640x200x16 *and* I have the BGI to do it? Folks with superVGA
- probably feel the same.
-
- And we'd *all* like to be able to eliminate the space used by the unused
- BGI drivers.
-
- Oh yeah, Borland should have "suggested" an environment variable to point
- to the directory with all your BGI files. <sigh>
